Case Study: Project Management for an American Media Company

Client: Leading American Media Company

Challenge: The client, a prominent American media company, had recently been sold and acquired by a new media outlet. They faced a shortage of internal staff to manage a recurring project that had been successfully executed for the past eight years.
